MFC r261491 (by ambrisko):
Add a tunable "hw.mfi.mrsas_enable" to allow mfi(4) to drop priority and allow mrsas(4) from LSI to attach to newer LSI cards that are support by mrsas(4). If mrsas(4) is not loaded into the system at boot then mfi(4) will always attach. If a modified mrsas(4) is loaded in the system. That modification is return "-30" in it's probe since that is between BUS_PROBE_DEFAULT and BUS_PROBE_LOW_PRIORITY. This option is controller by a new probe flag "MFI_FLAGS_MRSAS" in mfi_ident that denotes cards that should work with mrsas(4). New entries that should have this option. This is the first step to get mrsas(4) checked into FreeBSD and to avoid collision with people that use mrsas(4) from LSI. Since mfi(4) takes priority, then mrsas(4) users need to rebuild GENERIC. Using the .disabled="1" method doesn't work since that blocks attaching and the probe gave it to mfi(4). MFC r267451 (by delphij): Correct variable for loader tunable variable hw.mfi.mrsas_enable.
